SWITCHING from 400m hurdles to the flat has proved successful for Jasmine Rowe from Boronia who powered home to win the Rural City of Wangaratta Wangaratta Women's Gift final and collect her biggest payday to date.
Rowe came home in 13.632sec from her 12m mark, ahead of Ruby Crisp (13.75m - 13.780sec) and Wangaratta's Andrea Hearne (10m - 13.782sec) finishing impressively in third.
It's only Rowe's second year at the gift distances but under the experienced coaching of Todd Ireland she has been on the verge of a major triumph this season.
